Meanwhile, HTC and Lenovo have both announced they’ll be working with Google to produce a number of phone-less dedicated VR headsets.

As reported by Engadget, they’ll run on Qualcomm’s 835 VR platform and WorldSense (a variation on Google’s Tango 3D mapping technology) to enable positional tracking without the need for any external sensors.

Compatibility has been the biggest barrier to Daydream’s appeal so far, and Google look to be making a major effort to address that here.

Google have also recently made a number of hires aimed at addressing the content available on the Daydreamm, acquiring Owlchemy Labs and Logan Olson.
